The 2024 Nobel Prize Owners
The human brain is generally considered the most powerful and flexible computer. Yet for decades, scientists have been seeking to change that by machine-learning approaches that imitate (模仿) the brain’s ability. The 2024 Nobel Prize in Physics was awarded on Tuesday to U.S. scientist John Hopfield and British-Canadian scientist Geoffrey Hinton, each of whom used the tools of physics to develop artificial neural networks (人工神经网络) that lay bases for many of today’s most advanced artificial intelligence applications.
The Nobel Prize in Chemistry goes to biochemist David Baker, and Google DeepMind scientists Demis Hassabis and John Jumper, for predicting protein (蛋白质) shapes and functions —and for creating entirely new ones that can improve health and the environment. The 2024 Nobel Prize in Chemistry was awarded on Wednesday to three scientists for discovering how proteins do their jobs.
The 2024 Nobel Prize in Literature will be awarded to Han Kang. In her works, Han Kang faces historical hurts and unseen sets of rules and in each of her works, shows the weakness of human life. She knows the connections between body and soul, the living and the dead, and in her poetic and experimental style she has become an innovator (革新者).
21. If you are interested in physics, who will you want to know more about?
A. John Hopfield. B. David Baker. C. John Jumper. D. Han Kang.
22. How many 2024 Nobel Prize owners were mentioned in the text?
A. Three. B. Four. C. Five. D. Six.
23. In which column of the magazine can the text be found?
A. Sports. B. Science. C. Health. D. Shopping.

In remote mountains, Zhang Guimei, a determined middle-aged rural teacher, makes her way toward an old village home. The task she faces is challenging, as she needs to prevent a 14-year-old girl from making the misguided decision to give up her education. The girl’s father, a heavy drinker, is trying to force her to support the family by marrying a stranger in exchange for 30,000 yuan.
This scene takes place in the TV series She and Her Girls, which has earned a score of 9.4 out of 10 points on the popular review website Douban, making it the highest-rated Chinese drama on the platform this year.
With Song Jia playing the lead role of Zhang, the biographical drama is adapted from the real-life experiences of the female middle school headmaster, a pioneer educator who founded the Huaping Senior High School for Girls in Lijiang, Yunnan province, in 2008.
As China’s first public all-female high school to offer free education and financial assistance (经济援助) for living expenses, the school has helped more than 2,000 girls from poor and rural backgrounds to enter colleges.
Experienced scriptwriter (剧作家) Yuan Zidan explains to China Daily, “Zhang’s story has been widely reported, and many of the most touching descriptions are well-known to the public. As a scriptwriter, the challenge lay in reaching a balance between staying true and coming up with an engaging and moving story.”
In order to uncover deeper thought and broaden their understanding, Yuan and the team entered Zhang’s work and life, and interviewed her friends, former students and their families.
“We need more educators like Zhang. Outstanding teachers are important for a country to shape future generations. We want more excellent teachers, as well as more popular films and television shows telling their stories,” says Song Huan.
24. Why does the author mention the story in paragraph 1?
A. To report a fact. B. To describe a girl.
C. To show the background. D. To praise Zhang Guimei.
25. What do we know about the TV series She and Her Girls?
A. It is adapted from the real-life experiences.
B. It has earned highest-rated points on Douban.
C. It is the best-received television series of this year.
D. It has received a lot of reports and known to the public.
26. What does the underlined word “engaging” in paragraph 5 refer to?
A. Challenging. B. Horrible. C. Attractive. D. Original.
27 What can we infer from Song Huan’s words?
A. Popular films are more important.
B. More outstanding teachers are in need.
C. Excellent teachers set good examples to us.
D. The female’s education should be focused on.
C
The agricultural pests known as plant bugs (虫子) can be a farmer’ s worst enemy. A Costa Rican flower has turned them into friends, however, according to a new study. One kind of the so-called arum plant has developed to attract a kind of plant bug, helping them spread their pollen (花粉) far and wide.
“This is a new finding for ecology and biology,” says Zong-Xin Ren, an evolutionary ecologist who did not join in the work. The find comes by accident. Florian Etl, a graduate student working with evolutionary biologist Jürg Schönenberger at the University Vienna, was studying the role of beetles (甲虫) in pollinating plants. On that important night, Etl waited all night for arum plants to give out an evening sweet smell that attracts beetles. But it wasn’t beetles that were attracted—it was plant bugs.
Eager to know why, Etl made a chemical analysis of the sweet smell. When Etl covered white paper cones (锥形物) with the chemical, the cones attracted large numbers of the plant bugs. Moreover, when Etl covered the arum plant’s natural flowers with a fine net to keep away from the plant bugs, no seeds were produced.
“The change from being pollinated by a beetle to a plant bug is an amazing change,” says Regis Ferriere, a theoretical ecologist at the University of Arizona.
“It’s not clear how this discovery could help farmers fight plant bugs. But the discovery conveys an important protection message,” Ollerton says. “Attempts to protect pollinators need to go beyond just ‘Save the Bees’ campaigns.”
28. What does the underlined word “them” in Paragraph 1 refer to?
A. Farmers. B. Flowers. C. Plants. D. Bugs.
29. How did Florian Etl find the plant bugs?
A. By studying the sweet smell. B. By studying the role of the beetles.
C. By looking for the beetles. D. By working with Zong-Xin Ren.
30. What do we know about the plant bugs?
A. They are attracted by the beetles.
B. They can help the plants spread pollen.
C. They are more active than beetles during the day.
D. They make little difference to the flowers of the plant.
31. Which of the following can be used to describe the study?
A. A bad thing never dies with time going.
B. A fox may grow gray, but never good.
C A good beginning makes a good ending.
D. Many things grow that were never sown in the garden.
D
Today’s young adults (aged 18 — 34) seem to avoid phone calls altogether, with a quarter admitting they’ve never even answered one.
A recent survey shows a clear change in communication styles. Texting plays a leading role, with over 70% of young adults loving it. Voice notes are also very popular, being liked by nearly 40%. It seems linked to a general dislike of unexpected calls; more than half connect them with bad news. Interestingly, this aversion (讨厌) to phone calls isn’t shared by elders. Only 1% of those aged 35 — 54 use more texts than calls.
The survey suggests a generational change in communication styles. Phone calls, once a useful tool for connection, are now seemingly dropping in favor of other methods like texting and voice notes.
As reported, the young have played a main role in the online messages and text messages. An ordinary explanation for their unwillingness to answer phone calls is the pressure connected with them. More than half of them think there are negative news when receiving unexpected calls. The young generally like planned phone conversations as the primary means of communication.
Whatever the case, it’s clear that today, we don’t even imagine communicating without the help of a phone. New technologies, such as social media, would ruin human relationships in the long term. As a matter of fact, this may already be happening.
Indeed, we can’t ignore the value of the voice in human relations. Listening to the expression of another person brings us much closer to them. It’s also easier to emotionally connect with others in this way. Text messages are more often misunderstood. When communicating something serious, it’s always better to make a phone call.
32. What causes the change in communication styles?
A. The young feel pleasant to answer phone calls.
B. All of the young think voice notes are popular.
C. Few young people connect them with bad news.
D. The young are unwilling to receive unexpected calls.
33. What the function of the numbers listed in paragraph 2?
A. To provide evidence. B. To make a comparison.
C. To draw a conclusion. D. To explain the reasons.
34. What can we learn about making a phone call from the last paragraph?
A. It is easier to respond to. B. It makes us feel far away.
C. It brings a closer connection. D. It is more often misunderstood.
35. What is the best title for the text?
A. Answer a phone call in no time! B. Put away your phone while talking!
C. Can making a phone call be replaced? D. How can we communicate in the future?

【答案】18. C 19. B 20. A
【解析】
【原文】I’ve been living in Japan for a few years now. Five, in fact. Friends are always asking me if I prefer to eat with chopsticks or a knife and fork. It depends on what I’m eating, really. I enjoy using chopsticks. They’re easy to use. With the food here, I don’t have to worry about cutting anything. Japanese food tends to be cut up into small pieces, so it’s just right for chopsticks. But when I’m eating Western food, I prefer using a knife and fork. They are just more suitable. People also ask me about sleeping — whether I like to sleep on a Western bed or a Japanese flat bed? That depends on the season. In summer, I prefer a Japanese bed. It seems cooler than a Western bed. But in winter, I love a nice warm bed. The Japanese take their shoes off in the house and so do I, although my feet sometimes get cold.

The 2024 Nobel Prize Owners
The human brain is generally considered the most powerful and flexible computer. Yet for decades, scientists have been seeking to change that by machine-learning approaches that imitate (模仿) the brain’s ability. The 2024 Nobel Prize in Physics was awarded on Tuesday to U.S. scientist John Hopfield and British-Canadian scientist Geoffrey Hinton, each of whom used the tools of physics to develop artificial neural networks (人工神经网络) that lay bases for many of today’s most advanced artificial intelligence applications.
The Nobel Prize in Chemistry goes to biochemist David Baker, and Google DeepMind scientists Demis Hassabis and John Jumper, for predicting protein (蛋白质) shapes and functions —and for creating entirely new ones that can improve health and the environment. The 2024 Nobel Prize in Chemistry was awarded on Wednesday to three scientists for discovering how proteins do their jobs.
The 2024 Nobel Prize in Literature will be awarded to Han Kang. In her works, Han Kang faces historical hurts and unseen sets of rules and in each of her works, shows the weakness of human life. She knows the connections between body and soul, the living and the dead, and in her poetic and experimental style she has become an innovator (革新者).
21. If you are interested in physics, who will you want to know more about?
A. John Hopfield. B. David Baker. C. John Jumper. D. Han Kang.
22. How many 2024 Nobel Prize owners were mentioned in the text?
A. Three. B. Four. C. Five. D. Six.
23. In which column of the magazine can the text be found?
A. Sports. B. Science. C. Health. D. Shopping.

In remote mountains, Zhang Guimei, a determined middle-aged rural teacher, makes her way toward an old village home. The task she faces is challenging, as she needs to prevent a 14-year-old girl from making the misguided decision to give up her education. The girl’s father, a heavy drinker, is trying to force her to support the family by marrying a stranger in exchange for 30,000 yuan.
This scene takes place in the TV series She and Her Girls, which has earned a score of 9.4 out of 10 points on the popular review website Douban, making it the highest-rated Chinese drama on the platform this year.
With Song Jia playing the lead role of Zhang, the biographical drama is adapted from the real-life experiences of the female middle school headmaster, a pioneer educator who founded the Huaping Senior High School for Girls in Lijiang, Yunnan province, in 2008.
As China’s first public all-female high school to offer free education and financial assistance (经济援助) for living expenses, the school has helped more than 2,000 girls from poor and rural backgrounds to enter colleges.
Experienced scriptwriter (剧作家) Yuan Zidan explains to China Daily, “Zhang’s story has been widely reported, and many of the most touching descriptions are well-known to the public. As a scriptwriter, the challenge lay in reaching a balance between staying true and coming up with an engaging and moving story.”
In order to uncover deeper thought and broaden their understanding, Yuan and the team entered Zhang’s work and life, and interviewed her friends, former students and their families.
“We need more educators like Zhang. Outstanding teachers are important for a country to shape future generations. We want more excellent teachers, as well as more popular films and television shows telling their stories,” says Song Huan.
24. Why does the author mention the story in paragraph 1?
A. To report a fact. B. To describe a girl.
C. To show the background. D. To praise Zhang Guimei.
25. What do we know about the TV series She and Her Girls?

The agricultural pests known as plant bugs (虫子) can be a farmer’ s worst enemy. A Costa Rican flower has turned them into friends, however, according to a new study. One kind of the so-called arum plant has developed to attract a kind of plant bug, helping them spread their pollen (花粉) far and wide.
“This is a new finding for ecology and biology,” says Zong-Xin Ren, an evolutionary ecologist who did not join in the work. The find comes by accident. Florian Etl, a graduate student working with evolutionary biologist Jürg Schönenberger at the University Vienna, was studying the role of beetles (甲虫) in pollinating plants. On that important night, Etl waited all night for arum plants to give out an evening sweet smell that attracts beetles. But it wasn’t beetles that were attracted—it was plant bugs.
Eager to know why, Etl made a chemical analysis of the sweet smell. When Etl covered white paper cones (锥形物) with the chemical, the cones attracted large numbers of the plant bugs. Moreover, when Etl covered the arum plant’s natural flowers with a fine net to keep away from the plant bugs, no seeds were produced.
“The change from being pollinated by a beetle to a plant bug is an amazing change,” says Regis Ferriere, a theoretical ecologist at the University of Arizona.
“It’s not clear how this discovery could help farmers fight plant bugs. But the discovery conveys an important protection message,” Ollerton says. “Attempts to protect pollinators need to go beyond just ‘Save the Bees’ campaigns.”
28. What does the underlined word “them” in Paragraph 1 refer to?
A. Farmers. B. Flowers. C. Plants. D. Bugs.
29. How did Florian Etl find the plant bugs?
A. By studying the sweet smell. B. By studying the role of the beetles.
C. By looking for the beetles. D. By working with Zong-Xin Ren.
30. What do we know about the plant bugs?
A. They are attracted by the beetles.
B. They can help the plants spread pollen.
C. They are more active than beetles during the day.
D. They make little difference to the flowers of the plant.
31. Which of the following can be used to describe the study?
A. A bad thing never dies with time going.
B. A fox may grow gray, but never good.
C. A good beginning makes a good ending.
D. Many things grow that were never sown in the garden.
【答案】28. D 29. B 30. B 31. D
【解析】
【导语】本文是一篇说明文,介绍了一项关于植物与虫子之间关系的新发现,即一种哥斯达黎加花通过吸引植物虫子来帮助传播花粉。
【28题详解】
词句猜测题。根据第一段“The agricultural pests known as plant bugs (虫子) can be a farmer’ s worst enemy. A Costa Rican flower has turned them into friends, however, according to a new study.(被称为植物臭虫的农业害虫可能是农民最大的敌人。然而,根据一项新的研究,哥斯达黎加的一种花却把它们变成了朋友)”可知,“them”指代的是“虫子”。故选D。
【29题详解】
细节理解题。根据文章第二段“Florian Etl, a graduate student working with evolutionary biologist Jürg Schönenberger at the University Vienna, was studying the role of beetles (甲虫) in pollinating plants. On that important night, Etl waited all night for arum plants to give out an evening sweet smell that attracts beetles. But it wasn’t beetles that were attracted—it was plant bugs.(弗洛里安·埃特尔是维也纳大学的一名研究生,他与进化生物学家Jürg Schönenberger一起研究甲虫在植物授粉中的作用。在那个重要的晚上,Etl整夜等待海芋植物散发出吸引甲虫的夜间甜味。但吸引来的不是甲虫,而是植物虫子)”可推知,Florian Etl是通过研究甲虫的作用发现了植物虫子的。故选B。
【30题详解】
细节理解题。根据文章第一段“One kind of the so-called arum plant has developed to attract a kind of plant bug, helping them spread their pollen (花粉) far and wide.(一种所谓的海芋植物已经发展出吸引一种植物虫子的方法,帮助它们广泛传播花粉)可推知,植物虫子可以帮助植物传播花粉。故选B。
【31题详解】
推理判断题。根据文章倒数第二段“The change from being pollinated by a beetle to a plant bug is an amazing change,” says Regis Ferriere, a theoretical ecologist at the University of Arizona.(亚利桑那大学的理论生态学家瑞吉斯·费里埃说:“从甲虫授粉到植物昆虫授粉的变化是一个惊人的变化)”可知,有些事情的发展是意料之外的。所以D选项“事情的发展是意料之外的”能描述这项研究。故选D项。
D
Today’s young adults (aged 18 — 34) seem to avoid phone calls altogether, with a quarter admitting they’ve never even answered one.
A recent survey shows a clear change in communication styles. Texting plays a leading role, with over 70% of young adults loving it. Voice notes are also very popular, being liked by nearly 40%. It seems linked to a general dislike of unexpected calls; more than half connect them with bad news. Interestingly, this aversion (讨厌) to phone calls isn’t shared by elders. Only 1% of those aged 35 — 54 use more texts than calls.
The survey suggests a generational change in communication styles. Phone calls, once a useful tool for connection, are now seemingly dropping in favor of other methods like texting and voice notes.
As reported, the young have played a main role in the online messages and text messages. An ordinary explanation for their unwillingness to answer phone calls is the pressure connected with them. More than half of them think there are negative news when receiving unexpected calls. The young generally like planned phone conversations as the primary means of communication.
Whatever the case, it’s clear that today, we don’t even imagine communicating without the help of a phone. New technologies, such as social media, would ruin human relationships in the long term. As a matter of fact, this may already be happening.
Indeed, we can’t ignore the value of the voice in human relations. Listening to the expression of another person brings us much closer to them. It’s also easier to emotionally connect with others in this way. Text messages are more often misunderstood. When communicating something serious, it’s always better to make a phone call.
32. What causes the change in communication styles?
A. The young feel pleasant to answer phone calls.
B. All of the young think voice notes are popular.
C. Few young people connect them with bad news.
D. The young are unwilling to receive unexpected calls.
33. What the function of the numbers listed in paragraph 2?
A. To provide evidence. B. To make a comparison.
C. To draw a conclusion. D. To explain the reasons.
34. What can we learn about making a phone call from the last paragraph?
A. It is easier to respond to. B. It makes us feel far away.
C. It brings a closer connection. D. It is more often misunderstood.
35. What is the best title for the text?
A. Answer a phone call in no time! B. Put away your phone while talking!
C. Can making a phone call be replaced? D. How can we communicate in the future?
【答案】32. D 33. B 34. C 35. C
【解析】
【导语】本文是一篇说明文。文章主要讨论了年轻人对电话通话的回避以及对短信和语音留言的偏好,表明通信方式发生了代际变化,而电话作为联络工具的地位逐渐被其他方式所取代。同时,文章也强调了声音在人际关系中的重要性,指出在严肃沟通中,电话仍然是更好的选择。
【32题详解】
细节理解题。根据第二段中“It seems linked to a general dislike of unexpected calls; more than half connect them with bad news. (这似乎与人们普遍不喜欢意外的电话有关;超过一半的人将它们与坏消息联系在一起)”可知,年轻人不愿意接听意外的电话是导致通信方式变化的主要原因。故选D项。
【33题详解】
推理判断题。根据第二段中“Texting plays a leading role, with over 70% of young adults loving it. Voice notes are also very popular, being liked by nearly 40%. (发短信在其中占主导地位,超过70%的年轻人喜欢发短信。语音留言也很受欢迎,有近40%的人喜欢)”和“Interestingly, this aversion (讨厌) to phone calls isn’t shared by elders. Only 1% of those aged 35 — 54 use more texts than calls. (有趣的是,老年人并不反感打电话。在35至54岁的人群中,只有1%的人发短信比打电话多)”可推知,此处的数字用于比较不同年龄段的人在通信方式上的偏好。故选B项。
【34题详解】
推理判断题。根据最后一段中“Indeed, we can’t ignore the value of the voice in human relations. Listening to the expression of another person brings us much closer to them. It’s also easier to emotionally connect with others in this way. (的确,我们不能忽视声音在人际关系中的价值。倾听他人的表达能让我们更接近他们。以这种方式与他人建立情感联系也更容易)”可知,倾听声音在人际关系中很重要,能更好地维系亲近感,建立情感联系。由此可知,打电话可以带来更紧密的联系。故选C项。
【35题详解】
主旨大意题。通读全文可知,文章主要讨论了年轻人对电话通话的回避以及对短信和语音留言的偏好,表明通信方式发生了代际变化,而电话作为联络工具的地位逐渐被其他方式所取代。同时,文章也强调了声音在人际关系中的重要性,指出在严肃沟通中,电话仍然是更好的选择。因此,C项“打电话会被取代吗?”涵盖了通信方式的变化和对未来通信方式的思考,契合文章主旨,适合作为文章标题。故选C项。

57. To realize
58. details
59. confidence
60. be achieved
61. based 62. proud
63. which 64. for
65. a
【解析】
【导语】这是一篇说明文。文章主要对如何设定目标提出几点建议。
【56题详解】
考查宾语从句。句意:通过设定现在的目标,你就决定了你将来想要实现的目标。分析句子结构可知,此处引导的是宾语从句,表示“你将来想要实现的目标”,作宾语,指物,应用what引导。故填what。
【57题详解】
考查动词不定式表目的。句意:为了实现你的目标,你需要有一个好的计划,管理好你的时间,注意细节。根据句意可知,此处表“为了实现你的目标”,需用动词不定式作状语,表目的。故填To realize。
【58题详解】
考查名词复数。句意:同上。此处名词detail作pay attention to的宾语,用复数形式表泛指。故填details。
【59题详解】
考查名词。句意:此外,设定目标会给你带来更多的信心。分析句子结构可知,you是间接宾语,此空作直接宾语,much修饰名词,故用confident的名词形式。故填confidence。
【60题详解】
考查动词时态和语态。句意:设定可以实现的目标。分析句子结构可知,that引导定语从句,先行词goals与谓语动词achieve是被动关系,用被动语态,句中有情态动词can ,后接动词原形。故填be achieved。
【61题详解】
考查非谓语动词。句意:相反,你应该根据自己的能力和技能设定目标。be based on“基于”是固定搭配,goals与base是被动关系,用过去分词based作后置定语修饰goals。故填based。
【62题详解】
考查形容词。句意:当你实现每一个小目标时,你会为自己感到骄傲,这也会给你实现长期目标的鼓励。此处是be proud of,表示“为……感到骄傲”,填pride的形容词形式作表语。故填proud。
【63题详解】
考查定语从句关系代词。句意:同上。分析句子结构可知,此处引导非限制性定语从句,修饰前面整个句子,作主语。故填which。
【64题详解】
考查介词。句意:这会提醒你你在为什么工作,让你保持专注。根据句意可知,此处表示“为什么而工作”,故用work for,其宾语为前文what。故填for。
【65题详解】
考查冠词。句意:因为你的行动,你的梦想将会实现,希望你能过上幸福的生活。根据句意和语法可知,as a result of是固定搭配,表示“由于,因为”。故填a。
【点睛】
(B)
阅读下面短文,在空白处填入1个适当的单词或用括号内单词的正确形式填空。
Your best friends are always with you and you can trust them. But one day, your friendship ____66____ (fall) in trouble. Then, what should you do?

【答案】66. falls
67. on 68. apology
69. an 70. how
71. telling
72. suggested
73. extremely
74. tricked
75. and
【解析】
【导语】本文是一篇说明文。文章主要介绍了如何处理朋友之间的友谊问题。
【66题详解】
考查时态和主谓一致。句意:但有一天,你们的友谊陷入了困境。fall in trouble意为“陷入困境”,用一般现在时表将来,主语friendship是不可数名词,因此空格处用第三人称单数。故填falls。
【67题详解】
考查介词。句意:首先,花点时间反省一下自己的行为是个好主意。固定短语reflect on“反省”,因此空格处用介词on。故填on。
【68题详解】
考查名词。句意:如果你意识到自己错了,不要犹豫,向你的朋友真诚地道歉。此处作宾语,应用名词apology“道歉”,空前有a,空格处用单数形式。故填apology。
【69题详解】
考查冠词。句意:另一方面,如果你的朋友做错了,让你受苦,找个机会和他坦率地谈谈,听他的解释,让他知道你的感受。opportunity是可数名词的单数形式,表泛指,前面要加不定冠词,opportunity是元音音素开头,因此不定冠词用an。故填an。
【70题详解】
考查宾语从句。句意:另一方面,如果你的朋友做错了,让你受苦,找个机会和他坦率地谈谈,听他的解释,让他知道你的感受。空格处引导的是宾语从句,句子表示“让他知道你的感受”,用how引导宾语从句,表示“怎样,如何”。故填how。
【71题详解】
考查非谓语动词。句意:其次,一旦你的朋友经历了损失或失败,要不遗余力地给予安慰和鼓励,告诉他你一直很钦佩他,你会在那里以任何可能的方式支持他。句中谓语是spare,空格处用非谓语动词,tell的主语是you,you和tell之间是主谓关系,因此空格处用现在分词,表主动。故填telling。
【72题详解】
考查固定句型。句意:此外,当你的朋友感到孤独和无助时,建议你经常陪伴他,即使你的日程安排非常繁忙。It is suggested that...是固定句型,意为“建议……”,其中it是形式主语,that从句是主语从句,因此空格处是suggested。故填suggested。
【73题详解】
考查副词。句意:此外,当你的朋友感到孤独和无助时,建议你经常陪伴他,即使你的日程安排非常繁忙。空格处修饰形容词busy,应用副词extremely“非常”,作状语。故填extremely。
【74题详解】
考查非谓语动词。句意:然而,当你发现自己被朋友欺骗时,也许是时候重新考虑你们的关系了。trick与yourself是逻辑动宾关系,空格处用过去分词,表被动,作宾语补足语。故填tricked。
【75题详解】
考查连词。句意:认真和他谈谈,然后决定是否要放弃这段友谊。“Talk to him seriously”和“then decide”之间是并列顺承关系,因此用并列连词and。故填and。

【77题详解】
考查动词。句意:有一些巧妙的指导,电影拍摄得很好。空处和is构成谓语,结合“the film”可推知,动词shoot“拍摄”符合题意,和主语film之间是被动关系,需用被动语态,表示“电影拍摄得很好”。故填shot。
【78题详解】
考查动词短语。句意:面对这些意想不到的困难,他勇敢地接受了挑战。空处作谓语,结合“the challenge”可推知,动词短语rise to“(成功地)应对,迎接”符合题意,表示“勇敢地接受了挑战”,且此处应该是叙述过去发生的事,时态宜用一般过去时。故填rose to。
【79题详解】
考查动词短语。句意:当我把受惊的小鸡放进窝里时,它很快就平静下来了。空处作谓语,结合“the frightened chick”可推知,动词短语calm down“镇定,冷静下来”符合题意,表示“很快就平静下来”,结合“placed”可知,时态为一般过去时。故填calmed down。
【80题详解】
考查名词。句意:在家庭中,青少年和父母之间激烈的争吵和冷淡的沉默是很常见的。空处被heated修饰,和silences并列,作主语,结合“cold silences”可推知,argue的名词形式argument“争论,争吵”符合题意,表示“激烈的争吵”,且空前没有表示单数概念的修饰语,可数名词argument应用复数形式。故填arguments。
【81题详解】
考查动词短语。句意:他指望他的母亲照顾他的双胞胎;她在这方面很有经验。空处作谓语,结合“his mother to take care of the twins for him”可推知,动词短语count on“指望”符合题意,表示“指望他的母亲照顾他的双胞胎”,结合“has”可知,时态为一般现在时,主语为He,count需用第三人称单数形式。故填counts on。
【82题详解】
考查动词短语。句意:我花了很长时间才从她去世的震惊中恢复过来。此处用it took sb. some time to do sth.表示“做某事花了某人多少时间”,结合“the shock of her death”可推知,动词短语get over“恢复”符合题意,表示“从她去世的震惊中恢复过来”,get应用原形。故填to get over。
【83题详解】
考查介词短语。句意:她出去和别人玩了,而不是在家养病。空后为动名词短语,结合“having fun with someone else”和“recovering at home”可推知,介词短语instead of“而不是”符合题意,后接动名词短语,表示“而不是在家养病”。故填instead of。
【84题详解】

【85题详解】
考查动词短语。句意:通过健康的讨论,你将学会何时退让,何时要求父母放松控制。结合“when to ask your parents”可知,空处应用动词(短语)的不定式形式,构成“特殊疑问词+不定式”结构,作learn的宾语,结合“when to ask your parents to relax their control”可推知,动词短语back down“退让”符合题意,表示“学会何时退让”,back需用不定式的形式。故填to back down。
